Actaea japonica 'Silver Dance' - 2026

Actaea japonica 'Silver Dance' is a refined perennial grown for its attractively divided green foliage highlighted with silver variegation. From late summer into autumn, tall flower spikes rise above the foliage, carrying fragrant, fluffy white blooms that draw in bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. Its light, airy flowers contrast beautifully with the lush leaves, lending elegance and seasonal charm to shaded borders.

This cultivar performs best in moist, humus-rich soil and thrives in partial shade, making it a natural choice for woodland-style plantings or damp, sheltered garden areas. With its graceful form, decorative foliage, and long-lasting late blooms, 'Silver Dance' offers ornamental interest and supports biodiversity, enhancing the garden when many other perennials have finished flowering.
